There are hundreds of annuity companies and perhaps a thousand annuity contracts. You can find excellent spreadsheets online distributed by independent brokerage firms.
There are two categories of non-qualified annuities are: tax deferred and immediate. Tax deferred annuities have three basic crediting methods: fixed interest rates, domestic/foreign indices and separate subaccounts using equity and bond instruments. Immediate annuities offer various distribution periods like 10 or 20 years certain and lifetime income on the annuitant.
